Well, whaddaya know!  In the course of some experimenting I just set my
Eudora mailer to use the uSoft "Explorer"-based viewer instead of its own
internal viewer.

I was reviewing some old messages on the Urabus list at egroups, and ran
into one that had html in it. AND MY SYSTEM JUMPED UP, DIALED THE NET, AND
DOWNLOADED A MOVING AD FOR THE BOTTOM OF THE MESSAGE.  When I left that
message and came back to it, IT DID IT AGAIN.

I'm speechless.
